DIY - How to Immersion Cool ANY Asic Miner like a Pro! S19, 1246, M30
Рет қаралды 26,744
2 жыл бұрынThis is a complete guide on immersion cooling my S19j 90th or Avalon 1246 85th. This system will work for any Asic Miner!
I’ve spent the past few months trying to perfect an immersion cooling system for my Asic miners. There’s limited information out there on the topic so I thought I would share with you my setup and what I’ve learned in the process.
1. I am a DIY’er - not an electrician, plumber, or HVAC professional. When doing any electrical work especially, always follow your local rules and regulations.
2. This video is for guidance and assistance only, I’m simply sharing what I’ve learned in the process and doing my absolute best to provide accurate information.
3. I am not affiliated to or promoting any products in any way shape or form. If your product appeared in the video, thats because its good quality product!
4. This is my first ever video, i have next to zero video editing experience. I welcome any constictive feedback you have in relation to the video or content. mistakes, tips, questions, future video requests, etc
I’ve endured many headaches and failed attempts in this building process…but that’s what learning is all about! This is the successful end result. I believe in using only high quality components and only putting out content that is informed and accurate.
Finally, shout to Anthony Laursen on Reddit, and the Immersion Cooling Reddit community for helping bring this project to life.
Thank you!

Thank you for the video. I have my own hybrid version and was running into some problems. This is a topic that good info is still really hard to find. I been experiencing problems along the lines of enough cooling for my miners. I was experiencing slightly better results then your calculations in one of the comments. This shows that my heat removal expectations were greater then reality. I may have to look into other avenues to pick up my slack. I hate having my miners throttle down or having to shut them off. Good luck with newer versions.

Hey man, great setup! Thank you for your time on posting it and explaining all the way, helps a lot!!! I'm building a similar one myself, but using a fancoil to heat up my home by pulling fresh external air from outside. Regarding your issues with high temperatures: Heat exchange between two non mixing fluids depends on mainly three things: temperature delta (on both fluids), contact area surface and flow rate. Since you are using room temperature air to cool down, it just leaves flow rate as a controlled variable you can work upon without investing on a new cooler. That said, I'm quite sure your cooler is big enough for the application, but you are not moving enough fluid through it for it's maximum heat exchange rate to happen (200L/min for 8,8KW). Your pump says 2700GPH which is 171 L/min, probably less if you count hydraulic losses. Hope this helps!

Jordy...you saved me so much hassle. I was looking at the same RISEN manufacturer and it's SO good to know that there cooling capacity charts are not accurate. I was looking at a model rated 5.8 KW cooling capacity for a single s19j I was going to overclock. Figured I'd have lots of headroom even if I hit 4500 watts on the OC. From what you're saying, I'm gonna have to probably beef that up to your model it sounds like. Sucks, but glad to know now and not have all the time and wait just to find it undersized at the end of the build. THANK YOU.

Awesome video and your build looks nice and clean great job overall! Also Good call on the more expensive pump I have a extremely cost-effective setup. However I would recommend anyone interested in building one to spend a bit more on the pump. My pump had a failure in the main housing then thermal runaway and pump melted. Luckily I am only running a S9i and a E9 Pro. I also opted to go with a Radiator and electric radiator fan instead (Cheap amazon Honda radiator and fan no more than $70) of a oil cooler which works quite well. I also had to put a power control/limiter/switch (cant recall name of item same as one he owns) I noticed that the slower you can pump the fluid through the radiator or oil cooler the better. Since oil isn't able to get rid of the heat it holds the longer you can keep the fluid in the radiator the better. obviously you don't want to have it going too slow. I also opted to keep the Power Supply elevated outside of the tank itself as they contribute to the heat quite a bit. P.S. regarding a comment i read about PVC... From what I've noticed PVC seems to be fine at least in my case and I've been running for about a year or so with Mineral Oil as i cant afford Bitcool and like i stated my setup is a extremely cost effective version. as cheap as i believe you can make it without jerry rigging something or being afraid of serious issues.
@BackyardBitcoin 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you! And thanks for the feedback on your setup the data is helpful, great to know about the pump. I will eventually build another setup and decrease my flow rate to the exact engineered fluid recommendations, as mine is overkill. Currently my setup is working nicely, so I’m not going to modify it anymore. I will however continue to modify and improve on future builds.

Would you say that more total volume of dielectric coolant (I.e greater spacing of equipment in the tank helps with thermals? Or is it better to compact the equipment?) - my main takeaway from your video was that you need to ensure pump and radiator are effective and high quality units. Would be awesome if you’re down to hop on discord to discuss/troubleshoot as I know I’m going to have some hurdles ahead. Thanks brotha!

temperature delta is a significant factor in heat transfer, it probably can remove 77,000 BTU/hr from 300 F hydraulic fluid (not an unusual temp for hardworking hydraulics to achieve), but not your 85 F dielectric coolant. If you moved the rad outside in the canadian winter cold, it would increase the delta-T and thus your BTU transfer rate.

To hit heat removal specification you also need to hit coolant flow rate. increasing flow rate will help increase cooling capacity from your system
@BackyardBitcoin 2 жыл бұрын
You’re Correct. I’ve worked on that premise. I’ve doubled my flow rate 3 times and increased plumbing to 1” for the most flow I can get. I’m at the point now if I increase my flow rate any further it introduces air bubbles into the system, which decreases the fluid cooling properties. The rad is working super hard, it just cant throw anymore heat away, it’s just not that big of a rad. I’m at 158L/min currently, in the upper threshold of the companies optimal flow chart

@BackyardBitcoin 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! It really depends on how big of a tank you are using.I would suggest only using a tank that’s just slightly larger than the size of the miner. My tank has just under 80L total, intended for 2 Asics. If you are running just one miner you can use 40L of fluid with a tank half this size. There’s no benefit to having excess fluid. It does not evaporate, so you you will not need to top It up. Just keep it clean and it will last for years. Hope that helps!

Do I need to do any preparation on the asic before diving into the oil? (in addition to removing the coolers). Thank you very much! Brazilian greetings!
@BackyardBitcoin 8 ай бұрын
Thank you! Greetings🇧🇷 1. Yes immersion cooling is completely silent, the only noise you will have is from your heat exchanger fan. 2. This is one of my earlier builds, I have since modified the hot/cold side divider to be a couple Inches higher to completely submerge both asics. This is actually very important for optimal heat dissipation. If it’s too short, the hot oil can pool up and cause poor flow. 3. You will need to remove the all of the fans and get fan spoofers to trick the asics into thinking the fans are running. You plug them into where the fans plug into. I do have all of the supplies to build a another complete system if you are interested as well or I can send you the just the parts for a DIY build. I have another heat exchanger, pump, tank, fittings, etc. Hope this helps out! Let me know if you have any more questions or need any parts for your builld.

Bitcool 888 users: **A couple changes I would make after review and feedback - I had a brain fart and used pvc elbows instead of poly elbow fittings when I switched to 1” plumbing. Play it safe and follow the compatibility guide. UPDATE: *I emailed engineered fluids and received a reply Feb 08, 2022, they advised me the PVC Joints will be ok in the fluid. I wont have to change them.* UPDATE #2: On Feb 15, 2022 I had one elbow connection start to micro leak. So I simply added a 2nd hose clamp to each connection and that solved the problem. I would highly Recommend doubling up on hose clamps on each connection if you chose to use poly plumbing lines. UPDATE #3: March 7, 2022: The E6000 did not hold up in the Bitcool 888. it is not on the approved list. So please use a 2 part epoxy for longevity in the system.

Do you take out the PSU fans? Also, wondering how you get a water tight seal with the heat at 40+C Any redundancy in case of pump failure or leak? Does it shut-down the miner?
@BackyardBitcoin 7 ай бұрын
Yes you must take out the PSU fans. I’ve always been a little worried about my aquarium seals leaking with the temps, But so far it hasn’t been an issue. I have an Inkbird temp sensor in the coolant with a set high/low range that gives me notifications to my phone if something were to go wrong. Worst case I’m not around, the miners have auto overheat shutdowns built in..but of course you never want it to come to that.

@@ronwatkins5775 thank you. you can make your own significantly cheaper if you are willing to put in the time and are a little bit handy. Roughly 1/3rd of the cost. If I were to do it again I would use a metal tank to ensure there’s no issues. A fabrication shop can weld one easily for you. Feel free to drop me an email jordyandrew@live.ca I can save you a lot of time and help you avoid mistakes. I also already know the exact tank dimensions you’ll need to make it work. I also have a two spare pumps and another heat exchanger this size I can sell to you for cheap. It’s just taking up space in my garage. Im always willing to help out, reach out anytime.

@@BackyardBitcoinYes, im looking to house approx 8x KS3 miners (3.3kw) total, so about 33KW at 80%. I think I would go with a welded stainless tank. Im not sure I like the idea of pumping the oil through to the dry cooler though, I would prefer a local heat exchanger design to keep the oil side minimized with fewer potential pain points. Ive been investigating DCX and Fog hashing options. I think I would want some redundancy in my pump setup or at least a way to auto-shutdown the rigs if the temps are too high. My setup would have the dry cooler outside through a wall, similar to how mini-split AC's are setup.

@@ronwatkins5775 for sure. Stainless tank all the way. As long as you use yellow gas tape and pipe dope combined you’ll no leaking issues as all, not even a drop. If you do decide to go with something similar to mine or if you need anything let me know I’ll sell you the exchanger for $500. I also have one of the pumps that DCX uses as well and viton seals for use in a 1” threaded steel tank setup. No problem either way, best of luck with the build🤙🏻

You do not have to spoof fans from psu. In fact, some people dont even remove them. I removed some, unplugged others. Only need to spoof the 4 main fans. I did hear someone mention there is a firmware version you dont need to spoof at all, but I dont know if it is true.

Cooling capacity of the AH-1470 model is 8kw (27,000 btu). Giving some thought to why the Risen cooler isn't doing the job cooling both miners. Could it be that the pump flow rate may be moving the fluid too fast to remove the heat while passing thru the cooler before its returned to the heat source? The Sicca pump rating is 10,000:/hr-2700 GPH (45 GPM) which might be too much flow and is working against you. Just my thoughts.
@BackyardBitcoin 2 жыл бұрын
It’s a great point you raise. In theory, the properties of Bitcool will indeed cool more efficiently by absorbing heat from the PCB’s as it passes through at a slower flow rate. However, I did try two additional pumps in the experimental phase. One with 1/2 and 1/4 power of my current one (thinking bigger was better initially) with little noticeable change to the temperatures. I focused more on reducing the ambient air temp and flow plate design which both had significant impacts on temperatures. My future builds will a include the engineered fluids specified optimal flow rate.

@@BackyardBitcoin I went back to watch a DCX immersion system video again to compare. Their system is larger but I was curious about the sizing of components, like the pump. They mentioned their pump capacity was 45 GPM (@ 8m of head) so your pump GPM was identical to theirs. I'm wondering if the input/output temp differential would be better putting the dry cooler outside? The DSX system used a heat exchanger so it lowers the amount of Bitcool needed, especially for a long run to a dry cooler. Thanks for your info.

@@BackyardBitcoin One other point I'd like to mention. I was listening to a Compass Mining video and one of the guests mentioned that the thermal conductivity of the dielectric fluid is about 25% that of water and is more viscus, so you have far poorer heat transfer with the fluid and will need to significantly compensate in sizing with a much larger exchanger. I never realized there was such a big difference.

How could I achieve this? Get a more powerful pump? And should i try to pressurize the cooler more? Maybe by semi closing a ball valve on the outflow? Or should i just try to get a higher flow rate period, and not so much worry on the pressure? Sry kind of trying to be most efficient

To the best of my knowledge, it’s actually quite the opposite. The miners come out in almost brand new condition. Running cooler and free of dust and debris throughout its life cycle. You may have to add some thermal paste if it’s been reduced, but that’s about it.
